EVTEC backs DeFrancesco for eight IndyCar races

Devlin DeFrancesco’s return to the NTT IndyCar Series with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing in the No. 30 Honda will feature the return of sponsor EVTEC Group.

The European producer of automotive assemblies and components was featured on the Italian-Canadian driver’s previous IndyCar entry at Andretti Global and will take the role of primary sponsor for eight races -- almost half the season -- starting with Barber Motorsports Park, then the Grand Prix of Indianapolis, the Indianapolis 500, the Detroit Grand Prix, Mid-Ohio, the Portland Grand Prix, the Milwaukee Mile, and the season finale at Nashville Superspeedway.

"We take pride in our efforts to help our partners grow their business and look forward to helping EVTEC grow their already impressive client list,” said RLL co-owner Bobby Rahal.

DeFrancesco, who completed two season with Andretti from 2022-2023, is part of a significant reboot for RLL, joining 2024 Indy NXT champion Louis Foster as newcomers alongside team veteran Graham Rahal.
